I don't know if this will help skip, but from my experience with 150gr Win Power-points in a .308win they mushroom nicely out to 300y (Furtest i've recovered one) but sometimes shead thier jackets. 150's will drop fallow deer without too much trouble but i can't really comment on larger species because we don't have them here in Tas. But as long as they shoot well enough at 350y for you to conststantly hit a 4" ring I doubt you will have much of a problem [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] .

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs & cackling "You're next". They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

Well, my dad shot a nice buck with that bullet at about 15 feet a couple years back. The buck was chasing a doe right at him. The doe broke off at about 15 feet, and this was the first chance he had to shoot. The bullet broke the front left shoulder (deer broke to the left), but the bullet did not exit. The buck piled up about 40 yards down the hill, but still dead and easy to track.

I killed one buck at 360 yards with it and it was quartering away. Bullet entered between ribs, broke offside shoulder and I recovered the bullet from the hide. Full expansion and the deer fell dead. That was with a 243 and 100 grain power points. I don't think you would have any problem way past that mark with your 300.
